title: About the aws_iam_group Resource
platform: aws

# aws\_iam\_group
Use the `aws_iam_group` InSpec audit resource to test properties of a single IAM group.
To test properties of multiple or all groups, use the `aws_iam_groups` resource.
<br>
## Syntax
An `aws_iam_group` resource block identifies a group by group name.
# Find a group by group name
describe aws_iam_group('mygroup') do
it { should exist }
end
# Hash syntax for group name
describe aws_iam_group(group_name: 'mygroup') do
it { should exist }
end
<br>
## Examples
The following examples show how to use this InSpec audit resource.
As this is the initial release of `aws_iam_group`, its limited functionality precludes examples.
<br>
## Matchers
### exists
The control will pass if a group with the given group name exists.
describe aws_iam_group('mygroup')
it { should exist }
end
